A Brilliant job from Michael Bay. Good Summer movie!!

Rating: Null/10 (22 July 2005)

I actually had the chance to see this movie here in New Zealand as it opened simultaneously with the US. I didn't expect much from the movie at first but I came up with surprising results!! After this movie all I can say is that Michael Bay is the expert in Action / Thriller kind of movies. After doing similar kind of stuff such as Armageddon and Bad Boys, he presented a movie with a realistic science fiction that will take your breath away! The Island takes place in the year 2019 which is not too far away and it is really hard to imagine how difficult would it be to present our world at that period, but again I'm proudly to say that Michael Bay did that really well so that the human mind can still believe that is the year 2019 with no doubt.
Ewan McGregor is absolutely awesome in the movie as I think. He's a very good actor who can define himself and he did his role really well.
And Oh! Let us not forget the sexy Scarlett Johansson which she really has a pretty bright future.
To sum it up, The Island is the Science Fiction / Action movie of the year which is really recommended to those who like this kind of stuff (**** out of *****).
